Chapter 200
Du Gui fell from the sky and entered Qin Yun’s tree cave. He said, “Qin Yun, the tree’s roots are very deep. I have also made a tree hole that leads to the bottom of the tree. That place will be safer. You can move there!”
Qin Yun nodded and asked, “Teacher, that gigantic double-headed vulture from before, is it very strong?”
“Very strong! If a Martial Dao Realm cultivator was attacked by us in such a manner, he would have been severely injured. As for that huge bird, it does not seem to be injured at all.” Du Gui’s expression was cold as he said, “The vultures always appear in groups. We are worried that more two-headed vultures will arrive, so we have to quickly activate the barrier to prevent flying beasts from attacking us from the sky.”
Qin Yun had also moved from above to a tree hole under the tree. The students of the Star Xuan Wu Academy were even more nervous. Some of them were even worried that a gigantic flying beast would break through the barrier.
During this period of time, the teachers didn’t instruct the students on their studies and were all patrolling the air. The moment the wind blew, they would be able to make their move in time.
Qin Yun was in a tree hole in the tree roots as he practiced his various martial arts. He had already trained his Golden Bone and his body could withstand an even stronger and violent force. If he were to raise his martial skill, he wouldn’t need to worry about his body getting hurt from the powerful force that had erupted from the martial skill.
“I wonder how is the Tian Qin Imperial City! The entire Empire is backed by the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range. If the monster hordes attack, the cities near the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range will be surrounded very soon.”
Qin Yun recalled the powerful two-headed vulture beast and began to worry secretly. Even multiple martial arts teachers joined hands and still weren’t able to injure the vulture. If the vulture went to attack major cities, without enough martial dao realm cultivators, it would be impossible to defend against it!
Under the giant tree in the middle of the Treasure Forest, stood a one-armed, stern man. Beside him was a tall and sturdy man and a handsome, well-dressed youth.
Xie Wufeng, Murong Daren and Huo Zhong all entered the Treasure Forest.
Qin Yun was practicing his cultivation in the tree hole at the base of the tree when he heard Huo Zhong’s rough voice calling for him. He hurriedly came out.
“Boss Xie, why are you guys here?” Qin Yun put on a grey robe and walked out of the tree hole. When he saw Huo Zhong and company, he said with a smile.
“Brother Yun, we’ve come to bid our farewells!” When Xie Wufeng saw how Qin Yun was covered in sweat, he knew that he was working hard at his cultivation.
Qin Yun did not understand and asked with a frown, “Say goodbye? Where are you going? Could it be that none of you have passed the Star Xuan Wu Academy’s examination?”
Murong Daren smiled, “Of course not! How could that kind of lousy exam make things difficult for us? We’re going to the Blue Spirit Star Palace! It’s mainly because our teachers were selected to enter the Blue Spirit Star Palace, so we are going with them.”
Murong Daren and Huo Zhong had the same teacher and they were quite strong.
“Vice Principal Hou is also going to Blue Spirit Star Palace?” Qin Yun said in surprise, “Is it related to the invasion of the horde of beasts?”
Xie Wufeng nodded, “Yes! In addition, the Blue Spirit Star Palace was in a hurry to increase their overall strength, so they had relaxed the conditions to recruit outstanding students and teachers from the three Xuan Grade Martial Academies.”
Huo Zhong laughed: “I’m not entering the four palaces, I’m going to an even more powerful one! Aside from the four palaces in Blue Spirit Star Palace, there is a Blue Spirit Saint Palace. This is under the responsibility of the Palace Master! Aside from the Saint Palace, there’s still the Beast Martial Palace. The teacher of Murong and I will bring us to the Beast Martial Palace to cultivate.”
“That’s pretty good too. Although there are some very arrogant forces within the Blue Spirit Star Palace, there are also some that aren’t bad. For example, the Eastern Palace is quite good. You guys will definitely become stronger inside.” Qin Yun looked at Xie Wufeng and asked, “Brother Xie, what about you?”
“When my teacher and I enter the Blue Spirit Palace, we will become saints of the Blue Spirit Saint palace.” Xie Wufeng smiled faintly, “Brother Yun, with your talent, you will be able to become a saint within the blue spirit saint palace in the future. Are you interested?”
Murong Daren said, “In the Blue Spirit Palace, Saint palace has a very high status and is very mysterious. It is said that only martial artists below the age of twenty who have reached the 9th level Martial Body can become Saint. Before the age of 30, they must break through to the Martial Dao Realm. Even though Eldest Brother Xie is only at the 7th level Martial Body realm because he is a sword cultivator, he was recruited as an exception.”
Xie Wufeng said: “Yang Shiyue and Xiao Yuelan can also become saints of the Blue Spirit Saint Palace! In the future, we, the saints of the Blue Spirit Saint Palace, will all have to deal with powerful beasts.”
Huo Zhong smiled, “Brother Yun, you can enter the Eastern Palace Palace of Blue Spirit Star Palace now. Do you want to come with us? That way, we will have company too!”
The Eastern Palace Elder, Shui Yihui, had invited Qin Yun over. However, he had not considered it.
Qin Yun shook his head and said with a smile, “I don’t plan on going right now but I will definitely go in the future! After I master everything that can be learned in the academy, I will definitely come to the Blue Spirit Star Palace to find you.”
“Alright, we’ll be waiting for you!” Xie Wufeng patted Qin Yun on the shoulder and said with a smile.
After a simple farewell, Xie Wufeng and the other two left the Treasure Forest. From afar, another beast roar came….
The powerful and terrifying monster horde was slowly approaching. It seemed like it could engulf the area where humans were active at any time. A tense and fearful atmosphere accompanied the surging wind and clouds, enveloping the land and brewing a torrential storm!
It was a torrential storm formed by countless evil beasts and ghosts!
“I will go to Blue Spirit Star Palace!”
In Blue Spirit Star Palace, there was definitely a powerful martial art created by Martial King Lan Xiao. Since Qin Yun cultivated the Star Yang Heart Sutra, it would allow him to better grasp those martial arts. Therefore, he would definitely go to Blue Spirit Star Palace!
Moreover, when he entered Blue Spirit Star Palace, he wouldn’t become anyone’s disciple. Instead, he would pass the trial of the Inscription Gate and become the head of the Inscription Gate, standing on equal footing with the other Palace Masters.
At night, Du Gui returned. Just like Qin Yun, he was in his cave residence under the tree.
Qin Yun walked out of his cave abode and looked up into the sky. There were no stars in sight. The entire sky was covered by a thick layer of clouds. Lightning flashed occasionally as it bared it’s fangs and brandished it’s claws.
Arriving at Du Gui’s tree hollow, he saw Du Gui sitting in the hall with a grim expression.
“Teacher, what’s the situation now?” Qin Yun asked.
“The monster horde arrived faster than we expected. After they crossed the Cloud Dragon River, they leveled all the mountains and forests. They were very fierce!” Du Gui said.
In the Cloud Dragon Mountain Range, there were a lot of steep rock mountains. After the monster horde passed by, they actually all flattened it. Just thinking about it made him scared.
“Teacher, I have 450 million crystal coins with me. I want to buy something that can help me in my cultivation. What should I buy?” Qin Yun did not know much about this, so he asked Du Gui.
Du Gui thought for a moment and said, “You have just entered the seventh level martial body, the Golden Bone Realm. In the first half of this stage, you mainly train in the Golden Bone Realm and in the later stages, you use the Vajra Marrow inside the Golden Bone Realm to refine your Martial Spirit into a Vajra Martial Spirit.
Qin Yun’s body had the three profound scriptures of the Golden bones but they could not be considered the foundation of his physical body! Now that he could start cultivating Vajra Bone, it could massively strengthen his body.
After cultivating the metal bones, one would use them as the foundation and gradually turn the flesh and blood into vajra. Only then could one reach the peak of the seventh level Martial Body. It was also an extremely long process.
Du Gui said, “In the Xuan Point Store, there is a medicinal liquid called the Vajra Spirit Marrow. This kind of thing is naturally formed and it is only completed after being refined by a late stage of the Martial Dao Realm. If you can immerse this kind of Vajra Spirit Marrow, it will be of some help to your improvement.”
“Xuan point shop? Do I need Xuan Points to exchange for it?” Qin Yun did not have a single Xuan Point.
Du Gui shook his head and said, “Not only do you need Xuan Points, you also need crystal coin! The most expensive things in the Xuan Point Store usually require your Xuan Points to reach a certain amount before you can use your crystal coins to buy them.”
Qin Yun now understood that Xuan Points could not be exchanged for valuable things directly. Only after reaching a certain number would he be qualified to purchase valuable cultivation resources and spirit artifacts.
The Xuan Point Store had many rare treasures and it was not something that could be purchased just because one had a lot of crystal coins. One would also need to have enough Xuan Points.
“Teacher, can I get someone to buy it for me?” Qin Yun asked.
Du Gui smiled and said, “It is possible but the Vajra Spirit Marrow that you want to buy, requires you to accumulate two hundred million Xuan Points and then use one hundred million Xuan Points and ten million crystal coins to exchange for it.”
Qin Yun was dumbfounded. There were only a few people with so many Xuan points in the Star Xuan Wu Academy!
Du Gui continued: “Currently, there are not many students with 200 million Xuan points, Xiao Yanglong, Qin Zheng Feng and Qi Yu are a few of them! Xiao Yuelan and Yang Shiyue should be able to do the same! However, the Vajra Spirit Marrow is something only our Star Xuan Wu Academy has. It is specially provided for the students of the Star Xuan Wu Academy!”
“Teacher, Xiao Yang Long has one billion Xuan points on the wealth ranking, what’s going on?” Qin Yun recalled what Xiao Yue Mei had mentioned before and asked.
“He used to have a billion Xuan Points, so the wealth list is based on this ranking! The reason he was able to enter the Martial Dao Realm at such a young age is also because he has so many Xuan Points in exchange for a large amount of resources.” Du Gui said.
“So that’s how it is! It seems like Yue Lan and Teacher Yang are the same. In order to get their hands on the Xuan Points, they must have worked very hard.” Although Qin Yun had a large amount of crystal coins, he did not have enough Xuan Points to exchange for the Vajra Spirit Marrow.
Du Gui laughed out loud: “Your strength is not weak and you also have a large amount of crystal coins, if you want to transfer enough Xuan points, it shouldn’t be a difficult matte, and it should only be a matter of time! You’re only sixteen right? What’s the rush?”
Qin Yun was feeling a little anxious because he wanted to hurry to Blue Spirit Star Palace’s Eastern Palace and pass the examination to become the Master of the Inscription Gate.
Du Gui saw that Qin Yun was about to make a move and said, “Qin Yun, when the horde of beasts arrives, our Academy will definitely arrange for many things for a students to do. At that time, you might be able to obtain a large number of Xuan Points by killing the demonic beast.”
Qin Yun could only wait and see. If that was the case, he felt that he would be able to quickly obtain a large number of Xuan Points. At this time, he also imagined a team just like the team created by Qi Yu that would specialize in hunting and killing evil beasts. This team was able to help Qi Yu quickly obtain Xuan Points. This was also a very good method
